# Dominoswiss Binding
This binding allows the control of rollershutters, using an eGate as gateway and Dominoswiss radio receivers. The eGate-gateway is connected via ethernet to openHAB and sends its commands via radio to all rollershutters. See https://www.brelag.com/ (opens new window) for more information.
# Supported Things
eGate: Dominoswiss eGate Server. The eGate is the gateway which sends the commands to the connected rollershutters. The bridge-type ID is egate. Blind: represents one rollershutter, that can be controlled via eGate. The thing-type ID is blind.
# Discovery
Unfortunately no automatic discovery is possible due to protocol restrictions. Every rollershutter must be known by eGate and can be called by it's number of storage-place on eGate gateway.
# Thing Configuration
The bridge "eGate" has one channel "getconfig" which returns the config of this bridge.
The eGate is configured with both an ipAddress
and a port.
Property | Default | Required | Description |
---|---|---|---|
ipAddress | none | Yes | The IP or host name of the Dominoswiss EGate Serve |
port | 1318 | Yes | Port interface of the Dominoswiss EGate Server |
Bridge dominoswiss:egate:myeGate "My eGate Server" @ "Home" [ ipAddres="localhost", port=5700 ]
The thing blind represents one blind on the eGate. Each blind is represented by an id set on your eGate.
Thing blind officeBlind "Office" @ "1stFloor" [ id="1"]
The blind-Thing has the following channels:
Channel Type ID | Item Type | Description |
---|---|---|
pulseUp | Rollershutter | sends one pulse up to this blind. |
pulseDown | Rollershutter | sends one pulse down to this blind |
continuousUp | Rollershutter | sends a continuous up to this blind. The blind will automatically stop as it is fully up. |
continuousDown | Rollershutter | send a continous down to this blind. The blind will automatically stop as it is fully down. |
stop | Rollershutter | stop the action of the blind. The command will be imadiatly sent to the blind. |
shutter | Rollershutter | this is used to bind the channel to the shutter item. There are no further rules needed this channel will handel the up/down/stop commands. See example for usage. |
tilt | Rollershutter | same as shutter, this will handel all up/down/stop - tilt commands to be used with the shutter-item. |
tiltUp | Rollershutter | sends 3 pulse-up commands to this blind to tilt the blind. If your blind needs more than 3 pulse-up, create a rule yourself with three pluse-up commands. Between each pulse-up you should wait 150ms to let the command be processed. |
tiltDown | Rollershutter | sends 3 pulse-down commands to this blind to tilt the blind. If your blind needs more than 3 pulse-down, create a rule yourself with three pluse-down commands. Between each pulse-down you should wait 150ms to let the command be processed. |

Sample rule file
This example moves the blind of the office up as the sun passed 110 azimuth (so the sun is no longer shining directly into the office).
rule "OneSide up"
when
Item Azimuth changed
then
val azimuth = Math::round((Azimuth.state as DecimalType).intValue)
if (azimuth == 110)
{
OfficeBlindShutter.sendCommand(UP)
}
end
